Exchange Server 2007 introduced a new GUI management console (Exchange Management Console) to replace the Exchange System Manager (ESM) of previous versions. This earlier blog post The new Exchange 2007 Management Console overview gives an overview of the console. In this blog post I’ll show some tips and tricks of the console.

With Microsoft Exchange Server 2007, deployment is easier than it’s ever been. Take a look at some of the major improvements to Exchange 2007 Setup:
Validating an e-mail address could be really usefull. Here is a really good thing to do before sending that address to a creation/modification script :
Function ValidMail ([string]$Mail ) {
$regexp=”^([a-zA-Z0-9_-.]+)@(([[0-9]{1,3}” +
“.[0-9]{1,3}.[0-9]{1,3}.)|(([a-zA-Z0-9-]+” +
“.)+))([a-zA-Z]{2,4}|[0-9]{1,3})(]?)$”if ($Mail -match $regexp) {
$return=$True
}
Else {
$return=$False
}
Return $return
}
WMI is an acronym for Windows Management Instrumentation. WMI is the Microsoft’s implementation of Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) – a new management technology that allows software to monitor and control managed resources throughout the network. Such managed resources include hard drives, file systems, settings of operating system, processes, services, shares, registry settings, networking components, event logs, users, groups, etc.
WMI allows monitoring of performance counters as well. Microsoft applications such as Exchange and SQL Server have WMI built-in. Many non-Microsoft applications utilize WMI and thus they could be monitored using Advanced Host Monitor as well.
If you want to import some csv file that contain accents like “é” or special characters etc.. !
Here is a way to do that !:
Get-content $File |
Out-File $File -Encoding Unicode
Where $File is the full path of your csv file 🙂
It could be really usefull to use the -DomainController parameter with many Powershell commands… But How to be sure to find an available DC ?
A little function will help you to do that :
Function Get_Domain_Controller {
$site = [System.DirectoryServices.ActiveDirectory.ActiveDirectorysite]::GetComputerSite()$back = [System.DirectoryServices.ActiveDirectory.Domain]::GetCurrentDomain().FindDomainController($site).Name
return $back
}
Sending an email in powershell can be done, once more, using .Net Frameword 🙂
Function SendMail([string]$file,[string]$sender,[string]$recipients,[string]$server){
$message = new-object System.Net.Mail.MailMessage
$message.from = $sender
$message.subject = “My first mail in Powershell”
$message.body = “Hello,” + “`r`n” +”This mail was sent automatically by the script” + “`r`n” +”You will find in attachement all information you asked.” + “`r`n” +”Regards”
foreach ($rec in $recipients){$message.TO.add($rec)}
It could be really hard to find something interesting on the web when we encountered a trouble in Powershell.
After a long search, I found it ! So, let’s share..
A request in SQL using powershell can be send using .Net Frameword.
Passez à la vitesse supérieure avec les objetsMaintenant que vous savez tout sur les objets, ce paragraphe va vous permettre d’optimiser l’utilisation de vos objets, car même s’il est intéressant de disposer d’un petit script, sans aucun doute très pratique, il est encore plus intéressant de transformer ce script en une ligne de commande et pourquoi pas d’en faire un alias.
Constitution des commandes PowerShellLes commandes de PowerShell sont appelées « cmdlets » (pour command-applets). Elles sont pour la plupart d’entre elles constituées de la manière suivante : un verbe et un nom séparés par un tiret (-), exemple : « Get-Command » (commande qui liste les commandes disponibles).
